REWIND: A Feminist Climate Renaissance
Pathways for reducing carbon emissions include electrifying transportation and replacing fossil fuels with wind and solar power. But in this time of national reckoning on racial and economic disparities, there is growing support for a more holistic approach. This view holds that the climate crisis won\u2019t be resolved until we first address the systemic imbalances that have fueled it \u2013 racism, capitalism, white supremacy and patriarchy. In their recent book, All We Can Save: Truth, Courage and Solutions for the Climate Crisis, co-editors Katharine Wilkinson and Ayana Elizabeth Johnson bring together the voices of women artists, writers and change-makers who are at the forefront of climate action.\n\u201cThe work that we\u2019re doing is instigating or nurturing a feminist climate renaissance,\u201d says Johnson, \u201cwhich is what we feel the climate movement so desperately needs right now.\u201d\nGuests:\nAyana Elizabeth Johnson, marine biologist\nKatharine Wilkinson, Vice President, Project Drawdown\nCo-editors, All We Can Save:Truth, Courage and Solutions for the Climate Crisis (One World, 2020)\nChristine Nieves Rodriguez, Co-founder and President, Emerge Puerto Rico.\nSherri Mitchell, author, Sacred Instructions: Indigenous Wisdom for Living Spirit-Based Change (North Atlantic Books, 2018)\nHeather McTeer Toney, National Field Director, Moms Clean Air Force\nJainey Bavishi, Director, Mayor's Office of Resiliency, New York City\nLearn more about your ad choices.
